Propeller Turbine Demonstration Unit
The Propeller Turbine consists of a framework base which houses a large water reservoir and a circulating pump. A stainless steel top supports the turbine itself and a dynamometer assembly The propeller itself is housed in a clear acrylic pipe to allow maximum visibility of the workings. The unit incorporates a paddle wheel type flow meter and a pressure sensor to measure the inlet condition of the water. The dynamometer module incorporates a magnetic type brake which applies load to the turbine. The level of braking is controlled directly from the software. A load cell measures the braking force, and hence the power, and an optical sensor measures the rotational speed of the turbine.
